Tom Arnold never thought he’d be in a movie called “Dead Ant,” but life is just as unpredictable as the peyote smoked by characters in the film.
“We worked a lot with the green screen, so you’re taking a leap of faith,” Arnold told TheWrap’s Stuart Brazell.
“Dead Ant” is a comedy-horror movie that follows an early ’90s hair band as they head out to the desert to play the popular Coachella Music Festival — except, they’re actually playing at the knock-off concert “No-Chella,” because band manager Danny (Arnold’s character) couldn’t get them into the real thing.
“It stands up as a comedy, but then there’s the horror, sci-fi aspect to it, so it’s an interesting genre,” Arnold said.
